## Why get_company_facts is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries existing fact data from a catalog. It has no side effects, does not modify or delete data, does not execute code or external operations, and does not involve financial transactions. It is purely informational retrieval, fitting the Read category with low severity since misuse would only expose or return existing, already-published information.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Get[s] the verified fact record for a company by domain' and 'Returns the published (approved) facts' — a retrieval operation with no modification, deletion, or execution capability."

## Use case

AI agents call get_company_facts to retrieve information from Grounded Aeo without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Grounded Aeo:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_company_facts": {}
  }
}
```
